Iran threatens further attacks on Israel if IDF retaliates to aerial barrage

Iran warned Israel and the United States against any reaction to its massive missile strike against the Jewish State on Tuesday night.

“Should the Zionist regime dare to respond or commit further acts of malevolence, a subsequent and crushing response will ensue,” Iran’s mission to the United Nations wrote in a post on X.

Iran’s legal, rational, and legitimate response to the terrorist acts of the Zionist regime—which involved targeting Iranian nationals and interests and infringing upon the national sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran—has been duly carried out. Should the Zionist regime…

The Iranian leadership is stupid. Of course they are going to retaliate. They have no choice. The Israeli people will demand it.

I don’t know if they’re ‘powerful’; but they’re absolutely nuts. I doubt they’d last long.

(In what universe has it ever turned out well, when one who was attacked then agreed to be banned from retaliating??? Fortunately Israel ISN’T nuts.)

Translation of Iranian statement:
“We want to kill every last one of you filthy Jews, but if you fight back we’re gonna get really mad.”

Screw them. Go Biblical.

I think Israel would be wise NOT to play tit for tat and play smarter. Not eye for eye but a head for an eye.

Surgical strikes rather than stupid barrage of missiles like Iran does.

Use intelligence to selectively kill their leaders and installations they value with precise strikes.

It appears we will find out. Either way it’s not good. I think they probably have a nuke, Israel has nukes so will one side use it? This ends badly for both sides, and most likely the US. I have a few connected friends and they’re all saying to have food and water on hand. They all have said the exact thing several months apart from themselves. I hope they’re wrong but I’m prepared as well as I can be.

Yes they do. Similar to our allies getting weapons from us. They trade with their allies like we do ours. This will be a long war if the US and Russia continue to wage war from proxies instead of hitting each other directly.

I do not think Iran has a usable nuke because, if they did, they would not hesitate to use it to attack Israel.

Yeah, that'll scare 'em.

"We've spent over 40 years building terrorist proxies right on your borders, and now in Yemen, and installed missiles to hit you which we've had our proxies use against you, particularly during 2024. We don't share a border with you but have gone to a lot of trouble to announce to the world that we want to kill every Jew in Israel. So if you now fight back against our latest attack- wait, what's that whistling sou-" [kaboom!]

The thing is, we *assume* qqthat Iran may or may not have a nuke. We absolutely know that Israel has nukes.

I can pretty much say that Israel will not use a nuke on Iran unless they use a nuke on Israel. Where would Iran target? They wouldn’t target Jerusalem since that’s also a holy place for muslims. If they did, all of the Muslim nations around Israel would be pissed off to no end.

My guess is either Tel Aviv, or Dimona, which is supposedly where where the Israeli nuclear operations are supposed to be.

If Israel make a concerted attempt to decapitate Iran’s leadership and humiliate them, the mullah regime might collapse.

In all seriousness how powerful is Iran?
With or without Hezbollah and the Revolutionary Guard?
Ranked in top 15 countries worldwide. (14th) The last actual war they fought was against Iraq (80-88) and it ended basically in a stalemate.

How long would they last with a war with the IDF?

They would have to get there first and they would probably be devastated doing that even if they got permission to travel overland through other countries.

80% of Iran's fuel exports are through Kharg Island.

When Trump gets back in office, putting two carrier groups in the Persian Gulf, then publicly threatening to put Kharg Island out of business, and the Iranian economy along with it, is in order.

The UN, perpetual diplomatic and proportional response have failed since the Iranian revolution. The only thing the Iranian regime will accept are direct threats to staying in power.
